// ScopedTracker instruments a region within the code if the instrumentation is
// enabled. It can be used, for example, to find out if a source of jankiness is
// inside the instrumented code region.
// Details:
// 1. This class creates a task (like ones created by PostTask calls or IPC
// message handlers). This task can be seen in chrome://profiler and is sent as
// a part of profiler data to the UMA server. See profiler_event.proto.
// 2. That task's lifetime is same as the lifetime of the ScopedTracker
// instance.
// 3. The execution time associated with the task is the wallclock time between
// its constructor and destructor, minus wallclock times of directly nested
// tasks.
// 4. Task creation that this class utilizes is highly optimized.
// 5. The class doesn't create a task unless this was enabled for the current
// process. Search for ScopedTracker::Enable for the current list of processes
// and channels where it's activated.
// 6. The class is designed for temporarily instrumenting code to find
// performance problems, after which the instrumentation must be removed.
